Yet in order to realize this point, which in a plurality of light sources of the actual sensing of user remote controller must be able to discern.Researched and developed certain methods, wherein each light source is launched different code by means of its normal light output of modulation or by means of modulating separating code radiated element (such as IR-LED (infrarede emitting diode)) or radiofrequency launcher (the for example directional transmitter of 60GHz) in phasing signal.According to a certain criterion, select the code of the main reception of this remote controller.For example, this criterion possibly be " minimum incidence angle " or " high light signal " etc.
For example, communique WO 2007/095740 discloses a kind of illuminator, and wherein each light source is configured to when receiving remote control commands, launch the beacon signal of representing its unique identifier code.That is, remote controller is to the instruction of this light emitted beacon signal of light emitted order, and this beacon signal is a phasing signal.Beacon signal is integrated in the light of conventional light emitted.Remote configuration becomes to receive light and therefrom extracts beacon signal.There is the problem relevant with this illuminator.
A problem relates to synchronously.Remote controller is ordered its code of some light emitted simultaneously.For the code that makes that remote controller can reception separated from one another, this remote controller is equipped with in one way or the circuit of the light signal that other mode associations receive from Different Light.In order to obtain which light source is the reliable results of outstanding light source, hopes that light signal is at the time point of expection and basically side by side received by remote controller.
Another problem relates to the number of light source.When number increases, need more code.In order to keep the orthogonality of resonable degree, the length of code increases linearly.Need the long time launch than long code, or need the hardware/software of code generation faster in the light source.
In addition, there is dissimilar remote controllers, such as remote controller and the more senior remote controller that adopts camera based on simple photodiode.These dissimilar remote controllers are worked when using dissimilar codes best.Useful for reality, light source must be equipped with the many code mechanism that are used for beacon, and this point is a trouble.
Summary of the invention
An object of the present invention is to overcome at least some in these problems, and the control of the illuminator of simplifying coding is provided.
This purpose realizes by means of the method for the control illuminator that defines like claim 1 and by means of the illuminator like claim 13 definition.
Because code produces and be provided to light source through remote controller away from light source, light source does not need to be equipped with during fabrication odd encoder mechanism or or even any encoding mechanism that is used for light signal.Moreover, there is not the problem that increases number of light sources, because code is adapted to the number away from the light source of controller.According to an embodiment of this method, the generation of remote controller own will be by the code of light emitted.Thereby do not need other equipment to be used for the control fully of light source.
According to an embodiment of this method, each code is made up of the sequence of or more code signs, and remote controller indication light source launches code sign in different time, launches a code sign at every turn, and which code of indication emission.This point is favourable, and this is because light source only needs to launch single symbol.
According to an embodiment of this method, remote controller is the set that light source provides the predetermined code symbol, and this set comprises at least one code sign.Thus, light source need not known about any information such as coding, code lengths.
According to an embodiment of this method, the set of predetermined code symbol is upgraded according to the ground of the change dynamics in the total number of light sources.Thus, code produces and is adapted to the instantaneous needs in the illuminator easily.
According to an embodiment of this method, this method also comprises from one group of code sign of the principal character with one of amplitude and frequency selects code sign.These characteristics typically relate to light generation and therefore easy existing structure generation light signal by means of light source.
According to an embodiment of this method, this method is inquired its performance of light source before being included in and producing code.By this way, can be so that code be adapted to the performance of the light source of minimum assembling, simple as far as possible code for example is provided thus or has to produce the more option of elaborated code, this two possibly all need.
According to an embodiment of this method, this method comprises that the subclass to Different Light produces the code with different qualities.Coding maybe be more effective thus.For example, even the number of light source increases, the complexity of code can remain on low level, if perhaps combined with inquiry, light source can be divided into other group of different performance level, and can produce the code that has corresponding to the different stage complexity of different performance.
An embodiment according to this method once indicates some light sources by means of single broadcast.Thus, compare with independent instruction manipulation, the time loss that is used for instruction manipulation shortens, and the emission of light source is synchronous at least to a certain extent.
According to a further aspect in the invention, a kind of illuminator that is arranged as this method of enforcement is provided.This illuminator provides the advantage corresponding with the advantage of method.
Note the present invention relates to the characteristic of putting down in writing in claims might make up.

Embodiment
With reference to figure 1, the remote controller (RC) 3 that one embodiment comprises some light sources (LS) 1 and the setting that is used to control light source of illuminator according to the present invention.
In order to explain the communication between remote controller 3 and the light source 1, Fig. 2 illustrates the block diagram of an embodiment of remote controller (RC) 3 and light source (LS) 1.Light source 1 comprises control unit 5, the set of RF (radio frequency) module 7 that is connected with control unit 5, the light element driver 9 that is connected with control unit 5 and the optical element that comprises at least one optical element 11 that is connected with light element driver 9.
The phasing signal receiver (being optical receiver 21 here) that remote controller 3 comprises control unit 15, the controlling mechanism 17 that is connected with control unit 15, the theaomni-directional transmission device (in this embodiment for be included in RF (radio frequency) reflector in the RF module 19 together with radio frequency receiver) that is connected with control unit 15 and is connected with control unit 15.Controlling mechanism 17 comprises the user interface such as touch-screen or a plurality of buttons.Remote controller 3 is arranged as and uses following mode to communicate by letter with light source: (i) on the one hand; RF by means of RF module 7,19 on omnidirectional channel communicates by letter; And (ii) on the other hand; By means of optical element 11 and the optical communication of receiver 21 on directed channel, this orientation channel is also 3 unidirectional from light source 1 to remote controller.In addition, remote controller 3 comprises the signal comparator circuit that is connected to optical receiver 21 and control unit 15 and is included in the RF module 19 and is connected to the emission indicating device of signal comparator circuit.
According to the embodiment of method of control illuminator, when the user points to light source 1 and presses control button 17 when changing being provided with of light source 1, remote controller 3 begins to communicate by letter with some light sources 1 via twireless radio-frequency communication by means of RF module 19.Some light sources 1 are represented the child group of all light sources 1 in the illuminator or light source 1.More specifically, remote controller 3 omnidirectionals ground tells their emissions to comprise the phasing signal of code (being light signal here) to light source 1 firing order, and this code is unique for each light source 1.Comprise different codes in the instruction of emission.In this RF communication, remote controller 3 adopts to each light source 1 unique and basic identification or address that produce during fabrication.This itself is known to those skilled in the art, and for example this address is called as MAC Address.These addresses of study in the debugging in early stage that remote controller 3 is described below.
With reference to the flow chart of figure 4, in an embodiment of this method, in step 101, produce code away from light source (LS) 1.In this embodiment, remote controller (RC) 3 produces code, but alternatively illuminator can comprise the generation code and they are sent to the central equipment of remote controller 3.3 point to light sources and press the button 17 so that light output to be set when the user uses a teleswitch, carry out following processes.In step 102, the order that remote controller 3 receives user's input and in step 103, launches code and be used to launch code to light source 1 omnidirectional ground by means of its RF module 19.When each light source 1 when its RF module 7 receives these firing orders with corresponding code separately, in step 104, light source 1 is directionally launched the code as light signal that the set by means of optical element 11 receives.Then, remote controller 3 so that in step 105 in photodetector 21 receiving optical signals and detection of code, and carry out selection course in step 106 and point to which light source 1 with identification remote controller 3.When light source 1 was selected, in step 107, remote controller 3 was to new setting of this light source 1 emission.
According to another embodiment, code is made up of code sign, and these code signs also are called as chip.Remote controller 3 is once to symbol of light source 1 emission.This point is favourable, and reason is can keep low relatively for the demand of light source performance, and this is because they only need launch single symbol, i.e. the fragment of code rather than all code.As an example, suppose that remote controller 3 produces two different code symbol S1 and S2, wherein S1=" 0 " and expression " not having light ", S2=" 1 " and expression " all light ", and suppose that each code is made up of 4 symbols.In addition, suppose to exist 3 light source LS1, LS2 and LS3 and remote controller to produce the code c that is respectively applied for LS1, LS2 and LS3
1={ S1, S1, S2, S2}, c
2={ S1, S2, S1, S2} and c
3={ S2, S1, S1, S2}.
At step 112 (Fig. 5), when the user presses when button is set, in step 113, remote controller 3 is through { LS1 launch S1, and LS2 launch S1, and LS3 emission S2} indicates light source 1 to launch its corresponding first symbol via the omnidirectional channel firing order.In step 114, each respective sources is directionally launched its symbol.In step 115, remote controller 3 is measured the response that detects.
{ LS1 launches S1 to remote controller 3 utility commands, and LS2 launches S2, LS3 emission S1} indication light source 1 its second symbol of emission.Equally, at step 116-118, remote controller 3 is measured the response that detects.
Execution is similar to the 2nd but be to use two other operations that produce the symbol of code according to top; Launch all symbols in the code then; And in step 120; Remote controller 3 can confirm that at last which light source in a plurality of light sources 1 is the most outstanding like following illustrating according to a certain criterion, and this light source is confirmed as that light source that remote controller 3 points to.
At last, in step 121, remote controller newly is provided with to selected light emitted.
Explanation is used to select the sequential chart of this instance of light source among Fig. 3.Because remote controller 3 determines when the emission symbol, so illuminator is by automatically synchronously.Usually, this synchronous behavior is correct for operation.Yet, check point-device markers, reality some delays will occur in omnidirectional channel and in the command process in light source 1.Receive code signs in order to ensure reality when carrying out suitable measurement at detector 21, between measurement, use the typically biasing of several milliseconds of magnitudes from the code of the code sign that transmits and receives of the order of remote controller 3 or above-mentioned first embodiment.In addition, light source need not known code, and this is because they launch symbol simply by remote controller 3 orders the time.This means light source 1 need not know there are how many other light sources etc. in the system.Because the length or the spreading rate of remote controller 3 definite symbols, light source 1 neither need be known orthogonal code and also need not know non-orthogonal code.
As optimization,, make the order of each its n code sign of light emitted be incorporated in the single broadcast rather than to a m light emitted m separate message according to an embodiment of this method.This is minimized in the delay in the time of advent that exists on any wireless channel.In further optimizing, the broadcasting that is used for completion code after first broadcasting can be only to the variation coding with respect to last broadcasting.For example, with reference to top instance and Fig. 3, remote controller 3 will be launched { LS1:S1; LS2:S1; LS3:S2}, { LS2:S2; LS3:S1}, { LS1:S2; LS2:S1} and { LS2:S2; LS3:S2}.
Applicable another feature is " recovering normal " order that definition remote controller 3 will be launched after the emission last symbol, and this is because light source 1 does not know whether special symbol will be last symbol.When receiving " recovering normal " order, light source 1 will return to its setting before the broadcasting of first generation code sign.Advantage is that remote controller 3 need not send separate message so that it returns to its original setting to each light source 1.In addition or as alternative, also exist and suspend, do not reach a predetermined period of time if make light source 1 receive the code sign broadcasting command, light source 1 automatically recovers its original setting, and this predetermined period of time for example can be the magnitude of 1 second or several seconds.
For the measurements and calculations of carrying out from institute's receiving optical signals of light source 1, they can be carried out according to the useful arbitrarily current known or following method about remote controller 3.For example, known method is based on the measurement incidence angle, and wherein as disclosed among the undocumented application PCT/IB2009/052353, the light source that wherein has minimum incidence angle is selected by remote controller 3.Another method is based on light intensity, and the light source that wherein has the strongest intensity is selected by remote controller 3.
Before the user can begin light source 1 is set, some basic information exchanges must take place between remote controller 3 and light source 1.This accomplished in the debug phase.Between limber up period, remote controller 3 obtains about number of light sources in the illuminator, about the details of the intrinsic sign of light source and about the information of its performance.This information is used to produce suitable code and code sign, these codes or code sign preferably (but not necessarily) thus should be selected and obtain short as far as possible code or because other reasons is effective code.When producing, remote controller 3 is to the information of light emitted about code sign.Thereby for example according to an embodiment, the debug phase is following.
1. light source is powered up.
2. each light source 1 shows that by means of its RF module broadcast on omnidirectional channel it needs debugging.Light source 1 comprises its basic identification, such as MAC Address.
3. when adopting basic identification, remote controller 3 is inquired its performances of light source.For example, remote controller 3 can inquire how many minimum/maximum optical output intensities of PWM frequency that this light source of each light source can create, light source is, comprise reached at the color space etc. of the light source of a plurality of key light elements.
4. consider the receiver types of performance, the number that holds light source and the light source oneself of light source 1, remote controller 3 is confirmed suitable assemble of symbol and code collection.
5. remote controller is to the definition of light source 1 emission symbol (being also referred to as alphabet).In an operation, launch whole code rather than once launch among the embodiment of a symbol for remote controller indication light source, remote controller additionally provides each corresponding code for light source.
Preferably current, when the initial start of illuminator and in the situation that alphabet when illuminator is added new light sources must change, carry out these debugging steps.Yet, only need increase and change alphabet when surpassing a certain threshold value at the number of light source.Therefore, the step 1 that the most of the time execution is suitable for adding single new light sources is to 5, and this is because all the other light sources have had necessary information.These all the other light sources only just need to upgrade when the current set of code can not be held a more light sources.
There is the alternate ways of carrying out debugging.For example, debugging can take place when opening light source at every turn.
About such as being used for the two lift-off technology of RF communication and optical communication, those skilled in the art's general knowledge is useful and appropriate, so does not do detailed description herein.Yet, should mention that for remote controller PWM (pulse width modulation) frequency and the application of duty ratio in the light source can be set, for optical transmission, it will be favourable using TDMA (time division multiple access), FDMA (frequency division multiple access) or CDMA (code division multiple access).In this application, for example, light source 1 can have LED (light-emitting diode) optical element, and more specifically has a plurality of key light elements such as R (redness), G (green) and B (blueness) LED optical element.In any case, for from light source 1 emission code, carry out the modulation of the light output of some types, such as amplitude modulation(PAM) or the switch modulation in above-mentioned instance, used.Such as those skilled in the art understanding, select the kind of modulation as far as possible, make the user in the light of emission, not aware any flicker.
Those skilled in the art should realize, and the present invention never is limited to above-mentioned preferred embodiment.On the contrary, a lot of modifications and the modification in the appended claims scope is feasible.Except foregoing, some other instances are following.
It is different that the symbol that produces away from light source can be directed against Different Light according to the light source performance.For example, in illuminator, can have older light source with simple firmware and/or hardware and have obviously more senior firmware that much more more control possibilities are provided and/or hardware than new light sources.
In addition, remote controller can be equipped for and when producing alphabet, consider surrounding environment.For example, if there is the static interference source such as the sun or non-modulation artificial light source, then it can be detected and consideration.
Illuminator can be arranged so that remote controller can specify with respect to point to before the intensity of each symbol of intensity, for example+10%/-10%, with the observability of the modulation of restriction light output.Especially for pure FDMA scheme, before selection course, need not change amplitude, only if amplitude is in null value, and the code emission can be done to such an extent that virtual ground (virtually) is invisible.
Alternative as another, in order to promote the debugging of light source and remote controller, the multiple predetermined configurations that exists light source to support, for example, simple ON/OFF disposes, can also carry out the warbled configuration of PWM etc.When being inquired, (multiple) configuration of its support of light source report.
In an alternative, the instruction of remote controller emission comprises that light source should launch the time cycle of code sign.
In another embodiment, remote controller is arranged as the signal to noise ratio of the light signal that measure to receive, and the code that suitably changes light source is to improve this signal to noise ratio.
According to an alternative, in remote controller and light source, the RF module that is used for directional communication is IR (infrared) module on the contrary.
According to an alternative, the directional transmissions from the light source to the remote controller is carried out by means of the IR equipment such as IR LED.Another is alternative to be to adopt the RF directional transmitter, such as 60GHz RF reflector.For example, be too slow and can use that these are alternative during the incandescent lamp that can't directly modulate when light source.
According to an alternative, when light source is the multichannel light source such as multichannel LED, can carries out signal by means of the individual channel in the multichannel and send.For example, in RGB LED lamp, only the R channel can be used to produce phasing signal.
